[1] Brothers, I couldn’t speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly, as to babies in Christ. [2] I fed you with milk, not with solid food, for you weren’t yet ready. Indeed, you aren’t ready even now, [3] for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren’t you fleshly, and don’t you walk in the ways of men? [4] For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” aren’t you fleshly? [5] Who then is Apollos, and who is Paul, but servants through whom you believed, and each as the Lord gave to him? [6] I planted. Apollos watered. But God gave the increase. [7] So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. [8] Now he who plants and he who waters are the same, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor. [9] For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s farming, God’s building. [10] According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it. [11] For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ. [12] But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, or straw, [13] each man’s work will be revealed. For the Day will declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself will test what sort of work each man’s work is. [14] If any man’s work remains which he built on it, he will receive a reward. [15] If any man’s work is burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but as through fire. [16] Don’t you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you? [17] If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, which you are. [18] Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool that he may become wise. [19] For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He has taken the wise in their craftiness.”† [20] And again, “The Lord knows the reasoning of the wise, that it is worthless.”† [21] Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours, [22] whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All are yours, [23] and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.

King James Version
[1] And G2532 I, G1473 brethren, G80 could G1410 not G3756 speak G2980 unto you G5213 as G5613 unto spiritual, G4152 but G235 as G5613 unto carnal, G4559 even as G5613 unto babes G3516 in G1722 Christ. G5547 [2] I have fed G4222 you G5209 with milk, G1051 and G2532 not G3756 with meat: G1033 for G1063 hitherto G3768 ye were G1410 not G3768 able G1410 G235 to bear it, neither G3777 yet G2089 now G3568 are ye able. G1410 [3] For G1063 ye are G2075 yet G2089 carnal: G4559 for G1063 whereas G3699 there is among G1722 you G5213 envying, G2205 and G2532 strife, G2054 and G2532 divisions, G1370§ are ye G2075 not G3780 carnal, G4559 and G2532 walk G4043 as G2596 men? G444§ [4] For G1063 while G3752 one G5100 saith, G3004 I G1473 G3303 am G1510 of Paul; G3972 and G1161 another, G2087 I G1473 am of Apollos; G625 are ye G2075 not G3780 carnal? G4559 [5] Who G5101 then G3767 is G2076 Paul, G3972 and G1161 who G5101 is Apollos, G625 but G235 G2228 ministers G1249 by G1223 whom G3739 ye believed, G4100 even G2532 as G5613 the G3588 Lord G2962 gave G1325 to every man? G1538 [6] I G1473 have planted, G5452 Apollos G625 watered; G4222 but G235 God G2316 gave the increase. G837 [7] So then G5620 neither G3777 is G2076 he that G3588 planteth G5452 any thing, G5100 neither G3777 he that G3588 watereth; G4222 but G235 God G2316 that G3588 giveth the increase. G837 [8] Now G1161 he that G3588 planteth G5452 and G2532 he that G3588 watereth G4222 are G1526 one: G1520 and G1161 every man G1538 shall receive G2983 his own G2398 reward G3408 according to G2596 his own G2398 labour. G2873 [9] For G1063 we are G2070 labourers together G4904 with God: G2316 ye are G2075 God’s G2316 husbandry, G1091§ ye are God’s G2316 building. G3619 [10] According to G2596 the G3588 grace G5485 of God G2316 which G3588 is given G1325 unto me, G3427 as G5613 a wise G4680 masterbuilder, G753 I have laid G5087 the foundation, G2310 and G1161 another G243 buildeth thereon. G2026 But G1161 let G991 every man G1538 take heed G991 how G4459 he buildeth thereupon. G2026 [11] For G1063 other G243 foundation G2310 can G1410 no man G3762 lay G5087 than G3844 that G3588 is laid, G2749 which G3739 is G2076 Jesus G2424 Christ. G5547 [12] Now G1161 if G1487 any man G5100 build G2026 upon G1909 this G5126 foundation G2310 gold, G5557 silver, G696 precious G5093 stones, G3037 wood, G3586 hay, G5528 stubble; G2562 [13] every man’s G1538 work G2041 shall be made G1096 manifest: G5318 for G1063 the G3588 day G2250 shall declare G1213 it, because G3754 it shall be revealed G601§ by G1722 fire; G4442 and G2532 the G3588 fire G4442 shall try G1381 every man’s G1538 work G2041 of what sort G3697 it is. G2076 [14] If G1487 any man’s G5100 work G2041 abide G3306 which G3739 he hath built thereupon, G2026 he shall receive G2983 a reward. G3408 [15] If G1487 any man’s G5100 work G2041 shall be burned, G2618 he shall suffer loss: G2210 but G1161 he himself G846 shall be saved; G4982 yet G1161 so G3779 as G5613 by G1223 fire. G4442 [16] Know ye G1492 not G3756 that G3754 ye are G2075 the temple G3485 of God, G2316 and G2532 that the G3588 Spirit G4151 of God G2316 dwelleth G3611 in G1722 you? G5213 [17] If G1487 any man G5100 defile G5351§ the G3588 temple G3485 of God, G2316 him G5126 shall G5351 God G2316 destroy; G5351 for G1063 the G3588 temple G3485 of God G2316 is G2076 holy, G40 which G3748 temple ye G5210 are. G2075 [18] Let G1818 no man G3367 deceive G1818 himself. G1438 If G1487 any man G5100 among G1722 you G5213 seemeth G1380 to be G1511 wise G4680 in G1722 this G5129 world, G165 let him become G1096 a fool, G3474 that G2443 he may be G1096 wise. G4680 [19] For G1063 the G3588 wisdom G4678 of this G5127 world G2889 is G2076 foolishness G3472 with G3844 God. G2316 For G1063 it is written, G1125 He G3588 taketh G1405 the G3588 wise G4680 in G1722 their own G846 craftiness. G3834 [20] And G2532 again, G3825 The Lord G2962 knoweth G1097 the G3588 thoughts G1261 of the G3588 wise, G4680 that G3754 they are G1526 vain. G3152 [21] Therefore G5620 let G2744 no man G3367 glory G2744 in G1722 men. G444 For G1063 all things G3956 are G2076 your’s; G5216 [22] whether G1535 Paul, G3972 or G1535 Apollos, G625 or G1535 Cephas, G2786 or G1535 the world, G2889 or G1535 life, G2222 or G1535 death, G2288 or G1535 things present, G1764 or G1535 things to come; G3195 all G3956 are G2076 your’s; G5216 [23] and G1161 ye G5210 are Christ’s; G5547 and G1161 Christ G5547 is God’s. G2316
